the Brazen Head

20 Bridge Street, Lower Dublin, Ireland

"The Brazen Head is officially Ireland's oldest pub, dating back to 1198. While it is unclear how much of the original 11th century coach house is still intact, there is a palpable sense of history within these timeworn walls."

"James Joyce famously referenced The Brazen Head in his book Ulysses:"

I had a terrific dish of lamp stew.

I love the history attached and the bowl of lamb stew would be superb I know.

Aw - that brings back memories (of toasted sandwiches for some reason rather than alcohol!).
A fine shot of this beautiful old pub. Hope you had a pleasant trip. V
